Disclaimer!
I am a physician with some knowledge of the complexity of the work
of all of the allied professionals, but certainly not an expert.
I am happy to be here with you to share some of what is going on in
Quebec, but mainly I am eager to understand the views of the ROC!

• Besides the MUHC, the Centre Hospitalier
Universitaire de Montréal is also building a new
hospital, and Ste-Justine University Hospital is also
expanding as is the Jewish General Hospital;
• There is a Ministry mandated shift in the offer of
services towards the regions and away from
downtown Montreal;
• MUHC and CHUM to focus on tertiary and
quaternary care with less emphasis on primary and
secondary care.

Bill 90
• Took away the necessity for delegation;
• Gave the right of title and the right of practice;
• Requirement to belong to a professional Order;
• In general seen as a positive step, though certainly
did nothing to curtail, and in some cases worsened
turf wars;

the cath lab document.

What do we need to aim for…
• Emphasis needs to be focused on enhancing
interdisciplinary work with the allied professionals,
nursing and physicians:
• Admission (example psychiatry TCAB initiative)
• Discharge planning (daily huddles)
• Organization of care around interventional and cardiac
imaging
• How we get there requires integrated training at the
earliest possible moment.
